If you’ve experienced a tooth loss and are suffering with a gap in your smile or bite, a dental bridge may be suitable for you.
What Is A Dental Bridge?
If you are missing one or more teeth, a dental bridge is usually used to fill the gap. Fixed bridges are attached to neighbouring teeth, whether natural or implanted, on each side of the missing tooth. Dental bridges can be used to enhance a tooth’s look, shape, alignment, and dental occlusion in addition to reinforcing a broken tooth (bite). Missing tooth gaps can cause the remaining teeth to move, resulting in a misaligned bite. Bridges have a role in preventing this from happening.
Replace Missing Teeth With Porcelain Bridges
Porcelain bridges are a common form of bridge that may be used to repair lost teeth. They may be fashioned to look exactly like your natural teeth and biting pattern. Porcelain is an extremely durable material that can endure the mechanics of your natural bite while also organically mimicking the appearance and function of your original tooth enamel.
In-House Teeth Restoration Options Available
Using computer-aided design technology, our skilled staff at Naenae Dental Clinic can construct natural-looking and aesthetically acceptable restorations in-house. This technology enables us to create detailed restorations by assessing your natural bite and tooth orientation to ensure that the bridge repair fits flawlessly onto your teeth. Implant-supported dental bridges are an additional option for restoring lost teeth. These bridges are supported by dental implants rather than crowns or frames.
